Ideally located in Dupont Circle, luxurious Hotel Palomar puts "Art in Motion", for business and vacation travelers, with an artistic exposition in the heart of the nation's capital. Having undergone a complete renovation in July, 2006, Hotel Palomar is influenced by the modern elegance of the 1930's French Moderne era. Hotel Palomar's artistic intentions are heralded by the two-story, "living room" lobby's inspiring design. Unique works of art meld with the lobby's architectural elements and grand furniture to provide the perfect ambience for the hotel's hosted evening wine reception. Culinary delights are directed by Urbana Restaurant and Wine Bar, the destination eatery that serves locals and guests alike with an enlightened mix of sumptuous Italian dishes complimented by a wine selection managed by a resident sommelier. Artistic details, vivid fabrics and plush furnishings also accent the newly renovated 335 richly appointed guestrooms that are one of the most sizable in DC, offering an average of 520 square feet of indulgent space. Guests are pampered with plush robes and L'Occitane bath products. Industrial strength rejuvenation and relaxation is available with in-room spa services and "Mind.Body.Spa", which provides in-room yoga, Pilates and core strength programs. Standard amenities include A/C, morning coffee and tea service, 2-line phone with voicemail, evening turndown, oversized in-room safe, hairdryer, minibar, morning paper, umbrella, complimentary DSL and WiFi Internet, and cable, flat-screen TV with DVD/CD player and iHome alarm clock radio for iPods. Services include valet laundry, complimentary overnight shoeshine, valet parking, and 24-hour room service. The full-service concierge can arrange trips and tours to all D.C.'s attractions. The pet-friendly hotel welcomes pets with a treat and food and water dishes to use during their stay. Walking services are also available.
